IGMDC considers the media a key player in the process of democratization and global citizenship. That is why, we are committed to supporting free and democratic media programs, as well as projects that focus on debates about the democratic and social role that journalists and the media play in society and culture. The employment of new media technologies is now an integral component of any nation’s democratic development.
IGMDC will ensure free access to democratic media through the development and creation of alternative media programs and shows. Media monitoring and support will be achieved with the help of development projects for local media and cultural organizations. Regular review and evaluation of traditional and new media and journalism will be conducted through, among other things, the analysis of the communication process: procedures, norms that relate to transparency and accountability, free access to information etc. on the one hand, and provision of counseling, services and expertise in the fields of media development and democracy in collaboration with specialized institutions, economic and professional operators, and public agencies, on the other hand.
